Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 500 Kuna (Pattern) 1941 from Independent State of Croatia (Yugoslavia) made of Silver weighing 5.05g is that it features a unique design that was never officially adopted as a circulating coin. The pattern coin was minted in 1941, but the design was not approved by the government, and therefore, it was never released into circulation. This makes it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of Croatian currency.
